Hi, I'm HazelFyrebird, and I'm a wannabe luthier (I feel like I'm standing up at a Builder's Anonymous meeting...) in Virginia. I'm a bit of a lurker, as I've been reading and reading for a while,…Continue

Hey Everybody, my name is Bryan. I live on the coast of North Carolina but am originally from Ohio. Wow, are CBGs addicting. I had no idea I would become so obsessed with these things a few weeks ago when I first stumbled across them. I still don't remember how I even came across them. Anyway, I ended up here and have gained most of my knoweledge from all of your posts. Thank you doesn't doesn't seem to carry enough weight as a proper expression of how greatful I am for this website. There is a wealth of knowledge and seemingly friendly people. I look forward to meeting you all in one way or another.
I would love to find some other CBG'ers in the southeast coastal area of NC to pick and stomp with. Anyone of you around here?
Total newb to the cigar box guitar world. Found you folks last week and spent the last week gathering materials.
Have a nice CB and a 48" oak 1x2, a couple of trash First Act Discovery guitars for some hardware and have been reading your posts frequently. Hope to start the build within the week.
Typically play bass, but also have a solid body uke I thrash around on occasionally. Want to build a three-string guitar and convert one of the guitars to a baritone uke, so will be haunting the hallowed halls of CBN for tips ideas and information.
Love the stuff you all create and play!
Hey there. I stumbled upon CBG's around july, and decided I needed to build one. I also play acoustic guitar, banjo, dulcimer, and a few other random instruments. Finished up my CBG on sunday. She's a pretty basic fretless three string, but she sounds fantastic. Her name is Pandora. :D I'm planning on building another in a couple of weeks. When I stop being lazy, I'll try and post some pictures. :D
